AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 174

A company needs to label its AWS resources so that the company can categorize and track costs.
What should the company do to meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Use cost allocation tags.
• B. Use AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM).
• C. Use AWS Organizations.
• D. Use the AWS Cost Management coverage report.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as cost allocation tags allow the company to categorize AWS resources and effectively track costs associated with them. Options B and C do not relate directly to cost tracking, as IAM is primarily for access control and AWS Organizations is for managing multiple accounts. Option D, while related to cost management, does not provide a method for tagging resources.
